Last night I lay in bed looking up at the stars in the sky and I thought to myself, where the heck is the ceiling.

I closed my eyes once
One little second, and then
You opened your wings.

Over and out you
Flew and flew and flew to where
I could not see you.

Today you returned.
And my dreams of chaining you
Saw no more of night.
